Summary

The goal of this observational study is to assess food intake in hospitalized patients.

The present study will evaluate the impact of a novel in-hospital meal concept (three channel food concept) on total energy and protein intake, macronutrient distribution, and patient appreciation

Food intake will be assessed (as part of usual care) by weighing all leftovers (e.g. food that patients did not consume).

Conditions

  • Nutrition Poor
  • Protein-Energy Malnutrition

Interventions

OTHER

meal service

We're not subjecting patients to an intervention, as we will evaluate the current in-hospital meal service. As the three channel food concept is standard of care, we're not subjecting patients to dietary or behavioral changes. We will compare the data to an historic control.
